Chile Colorado Burritos

I am obsessed with mexican food. My Hubby will agree. Whenever we go out to eat, I always vote for a Mexican restaurant, and he always looks at me like I'm nuts and says, "Seriously?" Ha!

I can't get enough. The flavors, textures, everything about it is so good! These Chile ColoradoBurritos were some of the best I've ever made (and devoured). They're a crock pot meal (HOLLA!), which makes them even more amazing. (Anything that makes my life a little easier, is amazing to me)

This is a 'throw everything in the crock pot' meal before you head to work, and when you come home, your house will smell deeelish, and with only 5 more minutes of prep time, dinner will be ready!

After 8 or 9 hours, remove lid from crockpot and stir mixture together. The meat is ready, if it easily breaks apart. Using a slotted spoon, place 1/2 cup of meat mixture into the center of one tortilla. Roll up burrito-style and place into a 9x13 baking dish. Repeat with all tortillas.

Spoon the remaining sauce over the tops of burritos, and sprinkle with the shredded cheddar cheese. Place under broiler in the oven, for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve burritos with all your favorite toppings. (Salsa, sour cream, guacamole, etc) Enjoy!

I can relate SO much Holly - I think I must have Spanish in my blood somewhere. I LOVE Mexican food and it's always my first choice anytime too. This sounds like a fantastic recipe. Your photos look sooooo de-lish! MMMM!

This may be a dumb question but I don't have much experience with bouillon. Do I just put the cubes of bouillon in the crock pot as is or do I dissolve them in some water first and put that water in the crock pot? Thanks for your blog! I love it and have made several things already and they have all been awesome! My favorite so far is the chocolate chip pudding cookies.

I made these for dinner tonight and they were awesome! We will definitely be making them again and, of course, I shared this link with all of my Facebook friends to come over and try them out too! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
